I really enjoyed the atmosphere of this game. It brought me back to the days of being sat alone in the front room, perched over the PS playing the first game.

The fog, the noises, the monsters, they were all as they should have been. I did feel a little like the story was changed a little too much (being able to make phonecalls did take away from the isolation a little), but in general it was pretty true to what I know of the Silent Hill world. I know that there are some people who are BIG TIME into this story, and know all of the history behind all of the cults and monsters etc, but for someone who only plays the game for fun, this film is excellent.

I would really recommend this film to Silent Hill gaming fans, and horror film addicts as it does justice to both.

anyone understand the ending .. of how there are probably 2 realities? I know theres a Silent Hill one and the real world .. but why are they still in the Silent Hill realm? or are they?

I think there may be a sequal as shaun bean did absolutely NOTHING in the film and since they didn't meet up they should make a sequal, It was an awesome film, pyramid head was terrifying and amazing but it's a pity he ended up just dissapearing after the flaying bit. The janitor was cool too. It was a good film with a well.. odd ending.

I quite liked the ending. I mean, was the cult created because of the other world, or was the other world created because of the cult?

If there is a sequal made, I would love it to be like the rest of the Silent Hill movies and unrelated to the same characters. I really didn't care for Sean Bean in this, and wouldn't like to see him again.

As to the pyramid heads, have you played the games? He had pretty much the same story in SH3 (I think...), where he just kinda chased people round at times, then:

SPOILER (highlight to read)

The final showdown with 2 pyramid heads was kinda disappointing, as they essentially killed themselves. They had a spear each and threw themselves on it.
